I just saw the 21rst May episode and.....I have to say I am so disappointed in Ekta. This drama has been the best of all the ones playing on Zee tv...and Ekta has hit such a sensitive point which wasn't even necessary. I mean was it really necessary to bring up "Muslim Terrorists" AGAIN?? Every other movie..the bad guy is always a Muslim. And then the name of "Allah". Why is the name of Allah molested over and over again. The pureness of Allah defied? I understand we have different religions but isn't it our responsibility to respect every religion? I mean ok for Ekta..she's a religious Hindu and most importantly an Indian. By Indians, Gandhi ji is referred to as "Bapu"...he is the founder of the nation. He was a very spiritual man and very close to his own religion. But while being close to his own religion he believed that "Religions are different roads converging to the same point." He also believed that "The essence of true religious teaching is that one should serve and befriend all." If you befriend all...then as a friend you respect your friends don't you? Would you disrespect your friends religion? No. Another famous quote by Gandhi ji is "All the great religions of the world inculcate the equality and brotherhood of mankind and the virture of toleration." (I...a devote Muslim and a Pakistani am a great fan of Gandhi Ji)
I fail to understand...why are Muslims always viewed as terrorists? Why do directors in Drama's feel it necessary to show ONLY Muslim terrorists and stress on it. Then the bringing of the name of Allah. Now many of you may bring up the popularly "raped word"...Jihad.
My friends...Jihad is one of the most misused and misunderstood words. To briefly correct your perspectives Jihad does not mean to start war in the name of Allah and to kill innocent people. NO WAY!! Islam means PEACE. How is it possible that a religion that means PEACE could openly advocate war?? Jihad is less about war against others and more about war against oneself. War against evil in one self. War to conquer the devil within us. To become virtous people. Coming to the War in the name of religion..that war is only to be fought if the NAME of ISLAM is at question or being threatened. Only because a few Muslim terrorists misinterpret the meaning of Jihad and molest the word does not mean that what THOSE illiterate terrorists believe is correct!
Sooooooooo many people watch Zee tv..most of them i think are definitly watching Kasam se as it is the best still (with Jai walia n all;-) ) Why send the incorrect message across to the many viewers? Why mislead the viewers? When children hear "Allah" now..their going to think "oh that bad guy in Kasam Se said it..it must be a bad word"....that hurts.
I know at the end of the day it is only a drama serial..and I'm not getting over hyped about it. I just wanted to clear the misunderstanding of my fellow Kasam Se Lovers, if there was any. I feel all of us viewers and fans of Kasam Se have a connection...and I wanted to say what i felt..so i came along.
